Piero Manzoni — Linea (frammento)
Piero Manzoni

Linea (frammento)

1959

A slender, precise black line extends across a white paper surface, rendered in glossy enamel with deliberate simplicity and economy of means. This work is part of Manzoni's celebrated *Linea* series, in which the artist drew continuous lines of varying lengths, challenging conventional notions of artistic value, authorship, and the nature of the art object itself. The stark, reductive composition invites contemplation of line as a pure conceptual gesture rather than a representational or expressive mark.
